They have a different tone than the series. I don't think they're as good as the show but I think still worth watching if you liked it. I was talking to someone on last weeks post and I agree with their take that Star Trek works better as a show. The movies are usually trying to be epic action instead of the characters and stories they explore in many of the episodes.

I watched all the TNG movies this week. Debating whether I want to watch the kelvin movies or something else now.

It looks like there will be some very unique episodes though!

Still no release date. Sad. Although it does look like the leaked information could be correct.

As someone who works in a service job, people like this are very appreciated! Too many people just see a robot that exists only to serve their every whim and couldn't possibly have thoughts and feelings of it's own.

And to the people that say it's our job to make customers happy, yes it is. But you may find that by trying to brighten that worker's day they may go out of their way to make sure you have a superior experience. I certainly do, and when I'm the customer I've often found it to be the case as well.

Thanks for all the recommendations! It gives me a lot to check out. The ship models are especially nice but really expensive on ebay. It's too bad they don't make them any more. Hopefully someone else starts making them.

I will take a look at that! It might be a fun thing to try painting.

 

I just moved to a new place not too long ago and I finally have enough room to set up a Star Trek corner! What is everyone decorating with? I ignored collectibles for years because I didn't want the temptation to clutter things up but now I have the room. When I look around at what's available it seems everyone makes things and it's scattered in all different little shops. Which makes it hard to get a good idea of what is out there!

Yeah, I think it works best as a show too.

Not really, maybe WOK. I liked the movies but there is always a few things in each one that I don't like. It's not as big a deal in the show because it's just a episode and you start over with the next one.

I've seen all the TOS movies in the last two weeks.

That's an impressive project!

We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honoured dead. And yet it should be noted that in the midst of our sorrow, this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world, a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel that sacrifice a vain or empty one... and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this. Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, ...his was the most ...human.
